Yeah I’m in the same boat at ACN. Right now I’m focusing on project work and not doing much +1 stuff. When kids are older and we reach stasis I will begin looking elsewhere or seeing if I can take on more. However, I’m alright right now not getting promoted until they are a bit older in order to have a bit of balance and time with them. It all depends on what you want right now
Do things around the house without asking questions about it needing to be done. Load/Unload Dishes, take out trash, baths, laundry, meal planning, sweeping, backpack-prepping etc.
Do not expect credit, thank yous, or even acknowledgement. But it's your job to help the family close out tasks without caring about a scoreboard of who did what. Team wins.
This is all under my assumption that you're married with a partner that works as well.
We call that Community at Capco, but I can understand the struggle. My kids are 6 and 7 now but still a lot of work. My wife is a SAHM which makes it easier. She and I work out our schedule so that I can stay late a day or two a week to put in extra time on something like a proposal or biz dev / client dinners etc. I still make sure I get to kids events and make sure I see the kids every day either in the morning or evening. When I travel - about 25% or so - I make sure I face time with the kids. Its all about balance - which is hard to achieve, but is possible. I am mid-career plus (consulting is my 2nd career - post industry) but still achieve top ratings without working late every day or putting in weekends (I do so very very rarely). It helps to have an understanding spouse who is committed to the same goals as you (been married 20 years) and to be open about the struggle that you may feel balancing everything. I also have a Partner/coach who is female with children who is both awesome and understanding (I haven’t always been so lucky). At the end I put family first and my career 2nd.
SC1 - I already do all of that - I’m actually talking about the “above and beyond” work Accenture “encourages” us to do (called a +1) your project work + your “Overachiever” work
I have a daughter who is almost 4 and a son turning 2 soon for context
